National Championships 2022

8th Jul 2022

UPDATED: Confirming that the XP cutoff for National Championships is Monday, July 25th at 11:59pm PDT, as announced previously

With the Road to Nationals season in full swing, many players have been asking for more details about the 2022 National Championships. We're excited to share the initial details for this year's Championships, with more information to come next week.

National Championship events in 2022 will run from September 10th-25th, with events split between invitation-only events in larger countries, or open-entry events in smaller countries.

Invitation-only events will be limited to players who have qualified through Road to Nationals, receiving an invite via 90-day XP, or redeeming a PTI. There are 15 invitation-only events: Australia, Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Italy, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Singapore, Spain, Taiwan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. XP-based invitations will be issued based on standings as of Monday, July 25th at 11:59pm PDT, directly following the end of the Road to Nationals season.

Open-entry events will be open to all players, up to the player cap. All players who have qualified through making the Top 4 of a Road to Nationals event will automatically receive free entry to these events, while other players will be able to purchase a ticket to the event.

We are still confirming the details of each National Championship with our event partners, but will be releasing more details shortly. On Friday, 15th July (NZST), we will make another announcement with links to the event pages for all Championship events with confirmed dates and venues. A second update will come the following week with links to the remaining events. All National Championships will run between September 10th-25th.

Finally, we know lots of people have been asking for more visibility of major Flesh and Blood event dates, so we wanted to let you know the first details of the final two major Flesh and Blood events of the year;

  • The US National Championships and the associated Calling event weekend will be hosted by Star City Games and is taking place in Charlotte, North Carolina on the weekend of 23rd-25th September 2022.
  • The Flesh and Blood World Championships and the associated Calling event weekend will be hosted by Channel Fireball and is taking place in San Jose, California on the weekend of 4th-6th November 2022.

We're really happy to be working with such great event partners for these two big tournaments, and will be releasing more details soon as we get closer to opening the public ticketing for the Calling events and side event schedules that will be part of these weekends. In the meanwhile, best of luck out there with the Road to Nationals season!
